Container List

Series IX: Unprocessed Materials, circa 1930-1998 1960-1985

Arrangement

This series has not been arranged by an archivist. The materials are arranged in the
order which they were received from the donor.

Processing Information

Materials in boxes 4 through 7 were rehoused in acid-free folders in 2013 for preservation
reasons. Since acquisition, the papers had been stored in loose bundles tied with
twine or acidic, disintegrating envelopes and folders. In cases where there was descriptive
information on the envelopes or original folders, it was transcribed to the new folder
or photocopied and placed with the materials. Original order and groupings were preserved.

The materials in Box 8 have not received preservation rehousing.

Scope and Content Note

Series 9 is comprised of materials that came to the repository after the initial donation
was processed. Types of materials include manuscripts, articles, correspondence, and
photographic and graphic materials. Much of the series is various drafts of the manuscript
Tales of Three Worlds.
